As the duo leave an explosion rocks space and time itself, the rift imploding faster than the speed of light and obliterating the planet it as on... That wasn't the only extent of the damage however, as the rift seals the power of the explosion causes huge turquoise cracks to start spreading throughout the area. They crack and splinter the space they travel through, causing various anomalies as the tails of the cracks seal as they move...

Their expansion is constant, not being impeded by anything and heading for other universes unfortunate to be in their line of fire... Things drop from the cracks as they travel, a talking dog that instantly dies from lack of oxygen, a red and blue truck that transforms into a robot and begins floating around aimlessly, a yellow-skinned woman with tall blue hair and green dress, a gigantic ape, and even a young boy wearing a green outfit with a decorative blue sword strapped to his belt...

Elsewhere :

A deep growl can be heard deep within a cave that sits within Toussaint, Reima and Ciri had just sealed the rift but this apparently had unfortunate side-affects...

"THE GATE! NOOO, WHAT IS THIS!" an enraged shout escapes a pale figure hanging from the roof of the cave, their fangs and long claws bared. He breathes in heavily and scowls, the gate to their homeworld no-longer allowing even the scent through... Something must have happened, someone must've done something!

The figure drops to the floor and turns his head to the sky, giving out an incredibly loud roar that travels out of Toussaint and to the neighboring kingdoms, similar roars being giving by those as well which allows the sound to ring across the entire continent.

As for everyone who heard the sound? Sleepless nights were had, especially for Toussaint who'd had a vampire already tearing their capital city of Beauclaire apart... Assassinating the Duchesses sister and horrifically scaring her herself.

Elsewhere :

Reima and Ciri reappear next to the rift that'd originally sucked them in... Everyone was still present despite the amount of time they'd been gone, they pats themselves off as if to check if they're still alive, both giving long sighs when they realise they have indeed survived. They smile at each other but Reima's face quickly morphs into a frown...

Reima "What happened..." he mutters, looking up at the frozen Eeuwigdurend.

A white figure barrels into him, tears streaming down their face as they hug him tightly, "Rei, Uncle... He..."

He hugs her and pats her back comfortingly, "It's ok Cilla..." he mutters, glancing at Solaire who walks over with a sad expression.

Reima "What happened?" he whispers to the sun-bro, making sure Priscilla didn't hear them.

Reima raises his voice so everyone can hear him, "Then, we must give him a proper send off. The old m-Eeuwigdurend, protected us and asked for nothing in return. We at least owe him a heroes funeral." he states, the Chaos Servants and Prospects all giving solemn "Jolly"'s in response.

*Rooooaarr*

A strange sound echoes over the mountain top, causing everyone to turn their heads towards it... Reima's ears perk at it, never having heard such a thing before in all his life, giving a glance to Geralt it seemed even with his experience he hadn't either.

Reima "We'll deal with it later, we having something more important than that right now!" he shouts, checking Eeuwigdurend's body for a soul one last time before trying to store it inside his Folded Space... His exhausted magic from earlier not allowing him to to do such a thing right now... Shaking his head he leaves the body here temporarily so they could decide what to do with it.

Everyone begins making their way down the mountain, no one wishing to celebrate due to the solemn atmosphere... Reima spots Harry within the group and he walks over after handing Priscilla off to Solaire while greeting, "Yo... Harry?"

Harry turns and gives him an apologetic expression, "I'm sorry, I couldn't do anything..."

Reima sighs, "That's what I was gonna ask, did you try to take his soul?"

Harry nods, "I tried... But I didn't expect for the dragons soul to be so powerful, and resistant to my attempts. It was almost like it rejected my help."

...

Reima "Well, he always did like sleeping... Thanks anyway Harry, for trying." he says, patting him on the shoulder and teleporting to the city to try and find Asgore.

Rapidly, a huge funeral was arranged to take place outside the Chaos Temple... Reima chose the Bonfire.

It was difficult to fit most of the city on the mountain peak but it was managed somehow... Reima stood on the small island holding the bonfire surrounded by lava as everyone looks on at him. Solaire had just given a short Eulogy about Eeuwigdurend, the only other person close enough to the dragon would be Prisclla, but she definitely wasn't ready for something like that, especially as she'd just lost the only "true" father-figure in her life.

Taking a deep breath he looks at the gathered people and raises his voice, "You all know why we are here right now, but, most of you don't know who you are here to celebrate and mourne for... They were called Eeuwigdurend, the huge dragon that sat atop the mountain scaring you and your kids by their mere presence alone.

Some of you even petitioned to have him removed simply because of your fear for him, I have the paperwork to prove it." he says, giving a glare to a few of the humans and non-humans gathered. "Luckily your idiotic requests were ignored! As it was Eeuwigdurend who saved all of your lives by shielding the city with his own body! It's still there, the frozen corpse of our friend and guardian, a testament to all he gave us. Forget your prejudice, fear, and pre-formed conclusions about Eeuwigdurend and celebrate his life with us, as you owe him everything you are and have.

While he left many behind who will mourne him for as long as they live, he gave them a chance to continue on... So, unless you want me to dump you into the lake of lava, raise your drink for the guardian who gave everything, Eeuwigdurend!" he shouts, the crowd all cheering Eeuwigdurend's name, even those who'd previously wanted him gone.
